DIVERSITY AND DISTRIBUTION OF THE FAMILY NABIDAE

(HETEROPTERA) IN SERBIA

ABSTRACT: The family Nabidae (Heteroptera) in Serbia is represented by 14 species. This paperincludes a review of 1158 specimens from Serbia kept in the collections of the Natural History Museumin Belgrade. Also included are literature data on distribution of these species in Serbia, starting with theyear 1874. The distribution of Nabidae species in Serbia was determined from records of their presencein certain regions.

KEY WORDS: Heteroptera, Nabidae, distribution, Serbia

INTRODUCTION

With respect to the number of species, the family Nabidae can be considered one of the small-er families within the Heteroptera. In Serbia, 14 species from this family have been recorded.Nabidae in Serbia are treated in certain faunistic papers (FRIVALDSZKY, 1877; HORVÁTH, 1903;DIVAC, 1907; KORMILEV, 1936; CSIKI, 1940; ŽIVOJINOVIĆ, 1950; PETRIK, 1958; BENEDEK, 1969,PROTIĆ, 1986, 1987, 1993) or collection catalogs (PROTIĆ, 1990, 1998, 2006).

The goal of this paper is to determine the representation of species in certain regions ofSerbia. When the list of species in Heteroptera collections of Natural History Museum was com-piled (PROTIĆ, 2006), certain species were accidentally omitted, so this is an opportunity to publishdata on their distribution. Data on specimens of the family Nabidae, collected on the territory ofSerbia and kept in the collections of the Natural History Museum in Belgrade are published togeth-er with literature data here for the first time.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

The number of specimens processed in this study was 1158 (501 males and 657 females).They belong to the family Nabidae, were collected on the territory of Serbia during the period of1920-2005, and are currently kept in the Heteroptera collections of the Natural History Museum inBelgrade. The literature data mention some even older records of these species in Serbia, starting

with 1874 (FRIVALDSZKY, 1877).

According to MARKOVIĆ (1980), Serbia can be divided into the following areas, regions, andsubregions: Banat, Bačka, Srem, “Posavska” Serbia (along the Sava River), “Podrinjska” Serbia(along the Drina River), Zapadno Pomoravlje [area around the western Morava (=ZapadnaMorava) River], Šumadija, the Belgrade Microregion, Veliko Pomoravlje [area around the Morava(=Velika Morava) River], Stig and Braničevo, Carpathian Serbia, Balkan Serbia, Južno Pomoravlje[area around the South Morava (=Južna Morava) River], Vlasina and Krajište, Toplica andJablanica, Stari Vlah and Raška, Ibar-Kopaonik area, Kosovo, and Metohija. Species density (Tab.2) in different subregions was calculated by the formula:

r=log(S)/log(A)S = number of species; A = area (km2)

RESULTS

The regional division of Serbia according to MARKOVIĆ (1980) is used in this paper. Withinindividual regions, species of family Nabidae are listed in systematic order. The notation “New” infront of the names of certain localities in the list indicates that these specimens were not includedin our previous paper on the family Nabidae of former Yugoslavia (PROTIĆ, 2006).

CONCLUSIONS

This paper for the first time combines data on specimens of the family Nabidae kept in thecollections of the Natural History Museum with data gleaned from the literature. The study includ-ed 1158 specimens of the family Nabidae collected at 148 localities throughout Serbia. The exam-ined papers mention 30 additional localities for Nabidae in Serbia not included in the list of local-ities for specimens in the Natural History Museum. The localities are presented on the UTM mapof Serbia (Fig. 1). The value of the density quotient (r) is greatest for those subregions of Serbiathat have been most studied, namely, Šumadija, the Belgrade Microregion, and Carpathian Serbia.

The following four species are the most abundant and have the widest distribution in Serbia:Nabis ferus (Linnaeus), N. rugosus (Linnaeus), N. pseudoferus Remane, and H. mirmicoides (O.Costa). Nabis ferus (Linnaeus) was recorded in all 17 subregions in Serbia. It is followed by N.rugosus (Linnaeus) in 15, H. mirmicoides (O. Costa) in 11, and N. pseudoferus Remane in 10 sub-regions (Tab. 1). Nabis ferus (Linnaeus) and N. rugosus (Linnaeus) are euryvalent species. Thespecies N. flavomarginatus (Scholtz) is distributed at higher altitudes. In Serbia, it was recordedfrom Avala (500 m above sea level) to Kopaonik (2000 m above sea level).

For the species Himacerus (Stalia) boops (Schiødte), there are only two known localities inSerbia: Ruma (HORVÁTH, 1907) and Korab (CSIKI, 1940). These two localities are biogeographi-cally completely dissimilar. The Ruma locality is in Srem and belongs to the biome of Sub-Mediterranean deciduous (mostly oak) forests, while Mt. Korab is at the tripoint of Serbia,Macedonia, and Albania and belongs to the zone of Holarctic boreal forests. It is known that this

species is euryvalent in relation to humidity, and the two Serbian records match this pattern. Weassume that this species is found in small populations in nature, as after 1940 it was never againrecorded. The author collected one specimen in 1985, on Mt Durmitor in Montenegro (PROTIĆ etal., 1990).

The specimen of Prostemma sanguineum (Rossi) collected by Stančić in June of 1954 at theRečica locality in the Ramsko-Golubačka Peščara (Sands) was originally identified as P. bicolorRambur (PROTIĆ, 1986, 1998). However, after a review of the material and re-determination, it wasidentified as P. sanguineum (Rossi).

The following biogeographical elements are present among Serbian Nabidae species:Mediterranean (37.5%), Palaearctic (18.75%), Eurasian (12.5%), Euro-Siberian (25%), and cos-mopolitan (6.25%).

All these species are zoophagous and potentially important, as they might be useful for bio-logical control of pestiferous insects and mites.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

I am very grateful to my associate and colleague, Aleksandar Stojanović, conservator-ento-mologist at the Natural History Museum in Belgrade, who collected a large number of specimensand prepared the map of Serbia.

ФАМИЛИJЕ NABIDAE (HETEROPTERA) У СРБИJИ

ИЗВОД

У Србији је фамилија Nabidae (Heteroptera) заступљена са 14 врста (Таб. 1). У раду јеобрађено 1158 примерака, који су уловљени на 148 локалитета широм Србије. Истраженилокалитети приказани су на UTM карти Србије (Фиг. 1). Наведени су и литературни подацио распрострањењу ових врста у Србији, почевши од 1874. године на још 30 локалитета накојима су констатоване Nabidae у Србији, а који се не налазе на списку локалитета збиркиПриродњачког музеја.

Распрострањеност врста фамилије Nabidae у Србији урађена је према њиховојзаступљености у појединим регионима и подрегионима. Nabis ferus (Linnaeus) нађена је усвих 17 подрегиона у Србији, затим N. rugosus (Linnaeus) у 15, H. mirmicoides (O. Costa) у 11,а N. pseudoferus Remane у 10 подрегиона. На основу израчунате вредности коефицијентагустине (r) закључујемо да је она највећа за подрегионе у Србији, који су највише иистраживани, као Шумадија, Београдска микрорегија и Карпатска Србија.

У Србији су најбројније и најзаступљеније четири врсте: Nabis ferus (Linnaeus), N. rugo-sus (Linnaeus), N. pseudoferus Remane и Himacerus mirmicoides (O. Costa). Еуривалентне суNabis ferus (Linnaeus) и N. rugosus (Linnaeus). N. flavomarginatus (Scholtz) распрострањена јена већим надморским висинама. У Србији је ловљена од Авале (500 m) до Копаоника (2000m). Врста Himacerus (Stalia) boops (Schiødte) у Србији је позната на само два локалитета:Рума (HORVБTH 1907) и Кораб (CSIKI 1940). Предпостављамо да се ова врста јавља у малимпопулацијама у природи, јер после 1940. године више није нађена у Србији. Само једанпримерак уловљен је у Црној Гори на Дурмитору, 1985. године (ПРОТИћ et al. 1990).

Припадност и процентуална заступљеност врста фамилије Nabidae из Србијепојединим биогеографским областима је следећа: медитеранске (37,5%), палеарктичке(18,75%), евроазијске (12,5%), евро-сибирске (25%) и космополитске (6,25%).

Значај ових врста је у могућности да се примене у биолошкој борби против штетнихинсеката и гриња, јер су све зоофагне.
